Bathroom Accessories: Design for the Bathroom

Long neglected, bathroom accessories slowly moved into designers’ views at the end of the 70s, putting flair into bathrooms everywhere. For good reason. The bathroom is living space and should not be last priority after the kitchen and living room. Modern bathroom accessories give a special charm and comfortable ambience.
With stylish, deliberately placed bathroom decor, you can design your bathroom and give it a homely atmosphere. Numerous designers intensively deal with designing not only functional, but also visually compelling bathroom design accessories - so that toothbrush and toothpaste don’t stay the center of your bathroom any longer.

The Proper Accessories – What You Should Know When Buying:

Space: Your Bathroom Sets the Conditions

How much space and storage room is available in your bathroom? Don’t only measure the available space between the toilet, sink and shower, but also the width of the shelves.
Even 2 m² bathrooms can visually distinguish themselves with the right bathroom decor. Instead of cluttering the limited space with storage baskets for laundry and all manner of boxes, there are also options to add subtle accents with toothbrush glasses and soap dishes in the same color. Instead of towel racks, elegant or playful wall hooks would be an alternate option. Some soap dish holders and toothbrush glasses can be attached onto tiles with suction cups. That’s how you save storage space.

If you have 6 or more square meters available, the room for maneuvering is correspondingly larger. Bath mats, cabinets with additional shelving, towel rails and matching bathroom bins, tissue boxes, toilet brushes and toilet roll holders - there is no limit set to your creativity.

Style and Material: Chic and Moisture-Resistant

Every designer and manufacturer has their own style. Products by Eva Solo are mostly subtle - stainless steel, black or white. Joseph Joseph, on the other hand, places emphasis on color. The design of your bathroom accessories should be based on your taste, though when selecting materials, you should pay attention. In the bathroom, there is high air humidity, and materials must withstand these conditions. Often the decision is therefore for plastic and silicone. But even wooden bathroom decor can defy humidity and bacteria - for example, utensils made of teak wood, bamboo, or resistant oak. Glazing provides additional protection, though isn’t necessary for wood with high tannin levels. In addition, wooden objects look great with maritime flair - perfect for the small oasis of well-being at home.

Combination: Bathroom Accessories in Sets

Sets are offered to give a unified look to bathrooms. Alessi’s Birillo Series offers a set with numerous similar bathroom accessories in white or black - soap dispensers, trash cans, toothbrush glasses, multiple bathroom containers, toilet roll holders, toilet brushes, towel stands and much more. All design accessories from the otherwise color-loving producer blend subtly with their rounded shapes into the bathroom environment.

For those who like something more noble, there is the “Bath Collection” by Menu. The manufacturer boasts chic bathroom accessories in white or black lacquered steel and elements made of stainless steel. Elegant, pleasant, and restrained - typical Scandinavian design. Here you can also get everything in a set - toilet brush, soap dispenser, toothbrush holder, toilet paper holder and rubbish bin.

Installation: Bathroom Accessories without Drilling

To turn to the drill every time you revamp the room is cumbersome and completely unnecessary. Even small bathroom decor can positively change a space. In the Connox design shop you’ll find small bathroom accessories as well as towel hooks and toilet roll holders that you can install or hang up without a drill. Some of them can be easily attached with a suction cup.
